Chapter 4141
Winona could tease Forden about his name because she was not only his elder but also well-acquainted with his father.
However, the same could not be said of Feenix.
“No worries. I didn’t expect this young lady to be so lively and adorable. But I only have three sisters, so there’s no Oneden, Twoden, and so on!” Forden said with a laugh.
“Forden, you mentioned earlier that the Alchemist Fair is going to be held on Medicine God Island. What’s that all about?” Winona asked.
“I don’t know either. The notice was posted just a while ago, and the whole of Yannopolis is now in complete chaos. Many alchemists have no idea what’s going on. The Epean Alchemist Guild has been besieged by a crowd, all of whom are demanding an explanation. After all, they all traveled a great distance here, only to be told that the Alchemist Fair would be held on Medicine God Island, and they even had to pass an assessment.”
As Forden spoke, his anger was palpable, making it clear that he was extremely dissatisfied with the sudden decision.
Sigurd and Viola glanced at Jared.
It seems that he had inside information, for he knew from the beginning that the Alchemist Fair was going to be held on Medicine God Island! But since the news has just been announced, there are surely many who’d have objections!
“Come, let’s go and check it out. If it’s really as you say, they’re just taking things too far.”
While saying that, Heidi left the courtyard house in a rush with Forden right on her heels.
Winona simply shook her head and went back into the house since she wasn’t going to attend the so-called Alchemist Fair regardless of what was going on.
“Feenix, Catina, you both stay at home and avoid going out unnecessarily. We’re going out to see what exactly is going on!” Jared said to Feenix and Catina.
Feenix, Catina, and Cloud were clueless about alchemy. Nor were they alchemists. Therefore, it would be utterly pointless for them to butt into things.
“Master, you must be careful. Remember to ignore matters that are not your concern,” Phoenix warned.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”
Jared flashed her a subtle smile, then left with Sigurd and Viola.
When they all arrived on the main street of Yannopolis, all the alchemists on the street were shouting in righteous indignation.
Some even started a protest march with banners and placards.
After all, the matter was only discussed among the higher-ups, while the alchemists below were kept in the dark.
So, when the news was suddenly announced, it was sure to upset a great number of alchemists.
But it didn’t take long before the various great families and higher-ups of the various Alchemist Guilds stepped in, calling their people back.
In the end, only a few alchemists who were wandering cultivators were left and couldn’t make any waves.
In reality, the alchemists’ concern about wasn’t the venue of the Alchemist Fair. Instead, their greatest concern was the assessment.
Initially, there were no assessments for the Alchemist Fair. Anyone with the status of an alchemist could participate.
Everyone had already arrived then, yet there was suddenly an assessment.
To many people, that was simply unfair.
After all, many alchemists were not particularly skilled. Their main goal in attending the Alchemist Fair was to enhance their capabilities.
However, the Alchemist Fair that year had changed. Medicine God Island needed senior alchemists, and that was essentially alchemists with real skills.
It was also only skilled alchemists who could unravel the secret of the site of the fall of Medicine God.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Sending a group of underqualified alchemists to Medicine God Island would be nothing more than a waste of resources. It would be utterly pointless.
That was the reason Medicine God Island created an assessment.
All the alchemists were presently gathered at the entrance of the Epean Alchemist Guild since the matter required an explanation from the guild.
As everyone waited eagerly for the president of the Epean Alchemist Guild to give them an explanation, the doors of the guild slowly opened. A young man dressed in a white long robe embroidered with golden leopard print stepped out.
As soon as he appeared, he exuded an aura of dominance.
With just a glance, Jared could tell that his cultivation was surprisingly at Ultimate Realm. Although he had just recently broken through to the Ultimate Realm, that was still a fact without a doubt.
